In the Garden (hymn)

588 In the Garden

1 I come to the garden alone,
   While the dew is still on the roses;
   And the voice I hear, falling on my ear,
   The Son of God discloses.

Refrain:
   And He walks with me, and He talks with me,
   And He tells me I am His own,
   And the joy we share as we tarry there,
   None other has ever known.

2 He speaks, and the sound of His voice
   Is so sweet the birds hush their singing;
   And the melody that He gave to me
   Within my heart is ringing. [Refrain]

3 I'd stay in the garden with Him
   Tho' the night around me be falling;
   But He bids me go; thro' the voice of woe,
   His voice to me is calling. [Refrain]
